Built to resemble a hillside theatre, offers incredible views across Vlicha Bay, and it's only a couple of steps away from the beach.
The Greek resort was selected as the best out of more than 10,000 hotels at the TUI Global Hotel Awards on March 4.
The award is an "annual award ceremony where TUI, on behalf of its more than 19 million guests worldwide, recognises the top 100 hotels in the world".
The hotel has two infinity pools with incredible views, making it look like the water blends with the crystal-clear Aegean Sea.
There's also a pool bar serving cocktails and light snacks all day long.
One of the two infinity pools is also heated, and there's even an indoor pool if the weather doesn't cooperate — although that's very unlikely in Rhodes.
